The bags labelled "Sweet potatoes" are in fact Yams. Safeway also has them mis-named. George Jamieson read more

Really, there's nothing to fault with the fine people who work at this Trader Joe's or its management, led by the excellent Captain Dan Sawyer. Trader Joe's is always responsive to customers. There are, however, some issues with the corporation's packaging, like the synthetic and potentially toxic padding at the bottom of the fresh fruit containers; nice prepared soups that come and go based on irksome corporate policy regarding seasonal foods; rock hard peaches, plumes, etc. Store stocks cheaply priced unpleasant tasting Shaw wines, and reasonably priced quality wines (and beers). This Trader Joe's includes a scrunchy parking lot. THE ONLY SHOP YOU'LL MISS WHILE TRAVELING OVERSEAS. read more

I have been going to Trader Joe's since they opened up their store in Pacific Beach around 1985, close to home and all kinds of cool stuff. I continue to go, it is close to home and still has my cool stuff. The parking lot can a pain in the ass because I guess the foothills crowd do not know how to turn left or use a blinker, or watch where they are driving. The best time to go is in the early morning or later at night. I go here sometimes 4 times a week, it is primary source of sustenance. While they are always nice, it is a brand new day when I walk in, nobody knows who I am or anything about my life (I know that sound a little strange, but growing up I went to the same grocery store with my mom, the staff all knew us and had that pleasant greeting) I kind of miss those days of people recognizing you or me. No matter how many times I go to the same checker, there is no recognition. Again I know it is stupid, but when it comes to my food I like to feel the joy. I will continue to go here no matter what, because I do not live in a mall town, I should not expect them to recognize me. (it still is a little sad though) read more

Love going to Trader Joes, especially this location. It's fairly small but I never find myself squeezing through a big crowd or fighting for things. Joes is really my secondary shopping trip, I find myself needing to go to a safeway or frys or something of the like to pick up some essentials then heading over to Trader Joes after to pick up the food that actually will taste good! I love buying ready made or quick to make meals here, they're so cheap and always good. My favorite things to buy here are the frozen orange chicken and microwaveable brown rice. They are the perfect combo and I find myself coming in for just that every now and then. And the sushi is only like $3 for an 8 pack, way cheaper than the traditional grocery store! read more

If I were rating the employees it would be a 5. They are always friendly and helpful. However the store is smaller and when you add in the crazy people that use carts as battering rams in this store, it leads to a mostly unpleasant shopping experience. Overall they usually have a good variety of fresh items and a great selection of cheap-o wine. read more

Gotta love Trader Joe's! At first I was skeptical about all the hype. But now I've come to love it! It's definitely different from your average grocery store. I usually go elsewhere for meats, but everything else I can usually find here. And if you love snacks, you've hit the mother load. Trader Joe's is kind of a place I go when I'm too lazy to cook dinner. They have easy options for those who don't want to or can't cook. read more

Love trader joes! This store is set up in the exact way that my brain works. I can find everything easily and quickly- and if I can't there are always friendly people to help. read more

TJ's might be a bit spendy and have a spotty selection if you're looking to do ALL of your grocery shopping there, but it's a wonderful place to look for a few random treats and prepared/frozen dinners. I come here often for Indian and Thai sauces, cheap produce, and fresh baked goods. Definitely worth going out of my way for! read more

I love TJ's, but this location is pretty small (read: limited selection!) They've got the basics, but not much more. Not a great option for produce, but I love them for my favorite TJ staples: almond butter, fresh herb pizza dough, marinara sauce, 2 buck chuck (cheap wine), and cream cheese - try the seasonal pumpkin cream cheese! and the peanut butter cream cheese is great, too! read more

A great place to shop! Trader Joe's has unique items that make for great meals

This is my go-to TJ location because it's right around the corner from where I live. I love Trader Joe's...like I don't know if the word love can encompass how much I like this place. I just can't seem to like this location though. It's small, cramped, and the parking lot is a complete nightmare. Good luck turning left on to Campbell from the parking lot. read more

Trader joes is my place to go for organic berries, apples, pears, red bell peppers. I also get my bananas here and my antibiotic free chicken lol. I like this location it's laid back and not too busy when I go which is nice. read more

Love the low prices at Trader Joe's. They do organic and natural without breaking the bank! And it's half a block from my house!

This location is close enough to be my neighborhood grocery. Excellent selection of cheeses and wines. There are also great frozen foods and ready to eat meals. My only complaint is that so many of the fruits and vegetables are packaged. Why so wasteful, Joe? read more

Trader Joe's makes eating healthy fun. I enjoy their large selection of healthy alternatives. I walked out with several bags and dinner lined up for the week. My only suggestion would be that I would like them to expand their produce selection. The line to check out is short and their staff are quick. read more

This location is very busy and rather small compared to others, but the location is great and the service is very friendly!

I'm not sure how I would even feed myself without Trader Joe's. I'd starve to death. My only little complaint is that the produce can be hit-or-miss, and the aisles a bit crowded. I can deal with it though, as the customers and staff alike all seem way happier to be there than at any other given grocery. And when it comes to feeding a household of two semi-health conscious poor college students with no time to cook, nothing beats Trader Joe's frozen food. read more

What can you say about TJs that hasn't already been said? I was in town visiting and like always at other locations, this location was all too familiar. Saw the regular stuff with all goodness they like to stock. Employees walking around helping and doing their thing so everything was as expected. I made my rounds to find everything I needed with the exception of one pastry item. I guess some things are seasonal or don't quite make it to every store. No biggie, TJs always has something else good as a backup. So this place only lost a star for me because as I approached checkout, I was third in line and other lanes were not manned by employees even though they were standing around. Not until someone came in behind me and I was about to put my stuff up for the register, the check out guy switched with someone else and the person behind me was taken ahead of me in the other lane. So it just felt all too convenient or whatever. Just felt snubbed. I'm sure it happens to everyone so I won't assume the worst. read more

Their customer service is on par with QuickTrip and the employees seem happy to be there. I like the items stocked at Trader Joes in general- they offer a nice compliment to my Costco shopping. All in all, they've got a good thing going there. read more

Every time I visit TJ's, I leave happy and with a few dollars still in my pocket. The deals are exceptional. The produce is always super fresh and you can tell they receive only the finest foods. The rest of the store is filled with great deals and nutritious foods. If you haven't shopped here yet, give it a try. You'll be glad you did. read more

If you don't know about Trader Joe's, learn about it. It is the place where you can find the best quality of gourmet foods at very reasonable prices. An inspection of the ingredients of the groceries they stock reveals that they take careful pains to only sell products realtively free of the kinds of chemicals and corn syrup sludge that pollutes the over-processed foods we Americans have become accustomed to. This location is perhaps my favorite in Tucson. It seems like its the most spacious. Has the best parking. All Trader Joe's have excellent, helpful staff. read more

This is the best Trader Joe's in town! They always have their shelves stocked, clean, staff is friendly. I love this place!

This place is right by my house and I couldn't be happier. It can get very busy, but the trip is totally worth it. The staff is very friendly and it's really east to find what you are looking for. I also love the different samples that they hand out every day. Next time you go, try out the espresso pillows. They are little coffee beans covered in dark chocolate! Yum!! read more

THIS is the Trader Joe's location to go to :) The product organization and display at this location is so much more user-friendly than at the Oro Valley location. It is clean, the staff is super friendly and it is full of youthful, healthy customers....it's just fun to be here. The vegan items are much more prominently displayed at this location which is much appreciated. read more

I really want to like this place, especially as many of their staff are quite humane and not the hipsters that make other TJs unbearable. But the nice attitude of their staff does not make up for the spoilage I have been experiencing consistently over the last four years, especially with their diary products. Whole and fat-free organic milk that regularly spoils prior to the expiration date. Grated "fresh" Parmesan cheese that usually develops mold a week or two after purchase. And yesterday I bought some of their sliced wrapped Havarti - only to discover today that slices inside the stack have developed mold - three months prior to the printed expiration date of October 2016! Given the frequency this happens in I daresay that there is a systematic issue here - are you guys letting your stuff sit too long in the parking lot? Or is the delivery company cutting corners by using insufficiently cooled trucks? Maybe the issue is in TJs suppliers for the area? I never had issues buying from TJs in Manhattan during the many years I lived in NYC... read more

Sometimes a whole dollar cheaper than SFM! I will probably only get a few produce items at Sunflower and home goods at Fry's now. They now have canned coffee! Wooo! read more

ita our go to grocery place. always have interesting foods and great choices for a grocery store. they have in my opinion revolutionized what a grocery store means :) love this place for everything except fresh vegetables because it's more expensive than sprouts. read more

I love Trader Joe's. I don't do all of my shopping here because their produce department is limited, but for all specialty items TJ's is where it's at. Among other things I love the individualized trail mix bags, the Greek yogurt and it's the only place in Tucson I can find light coconut milk. I also love Trader Joe's because they always give excellent customer service! read more

Very friendly staff, who is always willing to help and converse!

This place is pretty fantastic. I went in expecting overpriced all organic foods. Didn't end up being what I got at all. Great staff, very fairly prices on some organic, and some not organic food. The chicken salad is pretty off the charts. I definitely love having this place around the corner. read more

My 1 star is not due to the low inventory, prices, or quality of their food. It's all thanks to a rude employee. I've always knocked on bathroom door before trying to enter. A few times when I've walked on someone because for whatever reason they did not lock the door. It happens, we are human. So this employee opens the door, looks behind the door all awhile ZIPPING UP HIS PANTS IN FRONT OF ME AND BUCKLING UP HIS BELT , and ask " did someone knock on the door" with smart -ass smirk on this face. I tell him yes,I did. So he goes to say "well if the door is locked it's locked". So I tell him I did not try to open the door prior to knocking, that's it. At this point explaining to his person about common courtesy would be a waste of my time. If he doesn't understand it now then he never will and with his snobbish attitude he doesn't want to either. I told another employee and she said she would talk to him. At the end of the day his whole attitude was because I knocked on the bathroom door, really? I will not be returning to this store. read more
